Even if you paid a shop to do it so they could work on it full time it will take quite a while.

Can you expand on that more? What seems to be the major hold up on them? I measured the frame rails on a vette and rocker to rocker on my car its the vette frame is roughly 15" wider so I won't be able to use the vette tanks like I wanted. I can buy rear vette frame rails and that gives me the upper arm mounts and from that I can tie into the Camaro chassis and build the tin work from there.

Cost and serviceability. I like using as many factory parts as I can so if something happens out on a road trip I can get parts local quicker.
